Description
“Tell me about her,” I insisted as he took my hand. Being linked barely slowed us.“She’s like nothing else in the world,” he told me, and the sound of an almost religious
devotion was there again in his voice.
"Breaking Dawn" by Stephenie Meyer, Chapter 22
that's definitely the hardest and most challenging portrait i've EVER done.
white chalk, white pastel pencil, charcoal pencil on 215g black cardboard.

This is precious! It made me aww
The perspective has to me my favourite part about this, the angle looks really challenging...but REALLY good! I love Edward/Pattinson's smile, and you've captured it PERFECTLY!

Yeah, the perspective is one of the things I really like about the reference that made me compelled to draw it And there is so much to draw there... I like his smile, too
I'm happy it looks right!

This is amazing!!! You've brought so much joy into this pic! Edward smile is brilliant as he's adoring this beautiful babe!
You've caught a father's love for his newborn baby!
You time spent on this portrait had paid off. I love this negative style. This picture is truly embraceable.

thanks for checking out my gallery!
about the sketching though i'm far far far from what i'd like to be... good sketchers don't use grids or rulers in the process...
...but i like to think that the result is what's important, and not the means to get there...

collective-soul In reply to alex-lp [2009-11-24 10:41:16 +0000 UTC]
its okay!
well, i am far from what i'd like to be and i'd probably never get to your level, i still think your sketches are amazing (:
and rulers and grids are guides, its good to use them ^^
